Slavery Reparations

Believe it or not, I'm all in favor of slavery reparations. Here's how it should work. Since the Democrats were the pro-slavery party, the DNC should cut checks that would cover 40 acres and a mule for every person who can prove he's a descendant of a slave. And hey, since Democrats love to spend other people's money, I'm feeling generous -- let's make that 40 acres worth of real estate in the center of Manhattan. Then, since the Republicans ended slavery at the loss of much blood and suffering, every slave descendent should sign that check over to anyone who can prove he is a descendant of a Civil War era Republican. Slate wiped clean! My point? GET OVER IT!!! If you are REALLY all that concerned about slavery, go HERE. If you are a 21st century "African-American" who has never even set eyes on a bail of cotton, if you aren't concerned about modern day slavery but only in what you can get for yourself, stop your whining, just go away. Go on. Shoo! SHOO! And if you are a black Democrat who gives aid and support to the party that enslaved your ancestors, just shoot yourself now. Clarence Thomas and Condoleeza Rice aren't traitors to their race, YOU are!
